The GP-7K filter canister is a Soviet-made 40mm (GOST thread) combination NBC filter issued for civil defence purposes. Introduced during the late 1980s, the filter was issued for the GP-7V kit.
Description[]
Just like the GP-5 filter, GP-7K filters come in an olive-drab colored metal canister with a screw-on cap whose color varies on what batch the filter is. It shares all features and markings alongside its predecessor. One notable distinction that sets it apart, is that the filter goes diagonal to the middle with strokes around.
Asbestos content[]
It is with high doubt that GP-7K filters may contain asbestos. While the gasmask may have been redesigned, it's filter did not see any change.
